A Jewish man was shot multiple times in a drive-by shooting outside a North Miami Beach synagogue on Sunday evening in an attack the synagogue president called an act of cowardice.
Yosef Lipshultz, 68, was shot six times, including four times in a leg, just after 6:30 p.m. as he waited for services to begin at Young Israel of Greater Miami, synagogue president Damon Salzman said. Lipshultz, whose Hebrew name is Yoseph Noach ben Leah Tzivyah, was reported in stable condition after surgery.

Salzman called the shooting “disgusting and repulsive” and said it has alarmed members of the community.“People are scared. I have received calls asking if it is safe to go to the synagogue,” he said.
